As a feminist (you know, the actual ones that aren't spastic overzealous sexists), I am actively right this second complaining about how this is the stupidest fucking shit ever.
Both your post and the shit happening in the news article.
You guys fucking disgust me, to call circumcision genital mutilation, thus making it equivocal to FGM, is so retarded, it's not even funny.
I didn't have mine cut when I was born. My mom just didn't see the point. I don't think my dad and brothers are cut either.. I considered it a few years ago at 18/19 and they told me that having it at an older age is SUCH a hassle and about 2 weeks recovery time. Not being able to even touch it. Have to shield it in the shower, can't have sex for about a month or 2 I think.
I know I can't see this being a hindrance at all for a 4 year old. But, even at such an AWARE age, its still going to hurt a lot more and be way more of a hassle to take care of.

that is beyond fucking illegal and this judge should be removed from his position pronto

Mutilation or maiming is an act of physical injury that degrades the appearance or function of any living body.
I'd say that it alters the appearance, so it counts as mutilation.
I don't care if you think circumcision is mutilation or not, what I find unacceptable is performing a completely useless operation on a child against their will. Same way I find piercing your kids ears against their will unacceptable. If there is no medical issue, no part of your body should be permanently cut off.

It's a less than five second "operation" for newborns

So getting a face lift is mutilation? It alters appearance, look good to some people, but bad to others.

imagine the shitstorm if the court mandated someone's son get a facelift
Imagine having Chad Kroeger's face tattooed to you as an infant because your mom loved Nickelback. You don't remember how it felt, and your mom thinks it looks good. The kid's obviously going to have his mom's taste in music so why not do it right now?
But 20 years later there's Chad Kroeger's now distorted face right on your calf. Always watching. Look at Chad's face on your calf. Every time you do it makes you laugh.
Every time you do it makes you laugh.

What the fuck are these names? Hironimus? Dennis Nebus? Is this the same bloodline as Marcus Aurelios or something?

I see what you did there.
My opinion is that this is elective surgery, so if one parent says no and the other says yes, then the one who wants it done should have to show WHY it needs to be done. Just giving a "It's a normal thing to do" reason isn't good enough.
Btw, if any case should have a gag order on it, it's a case where parents are fighting over a kid's foreskin.

I didn't say anything about giving children a face lift, I didn't say anything about circumcising children either, I'm arguing that male circumcision isn't mutilation.

if cutting a section of someone's dick off isn't genital mutilation then what the fuck is.
Just because one type of mutilation is worse doesn't mean that the other type isn't mutilation
The foreskin has 20,000-70,000 nerve endings, removing those is functionally degrading
as also demonstrated in cases of people who get adult circumcisions and have complaints about reduced stimulation and sensation

They're both mutilation they have different functions though.
Saying they have something in common doesn't mean they're equivalent.
If someone chooses to be circumcised, would you still call them "mutilated"?
[QUOTE=Doozle;47808520]Why do Americans circumcise their kids?[/QUOTE]
It got popularized as an anti-fapping measure.
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;47809223]Haircuts, piercings, and makeup are now "mutilation"[/QUOTE]
Mutilate: inflict a violent and disfiguring injury on.
A haircut or makeup isn't mutilation, as it doesn't cause a permanent injury - piercing ears and removing a foreskin does.
You wouldn't pierce a baby's ears (imagine the shitstorm if you did), so why is it fine to perform the even more violent and permanent injury of the penis?
Fuck, why don't we just start removing the appendix of every baby that is born? It is potentially harmful and serves little to no purpose. Except we don't, because it is a largely unnecessary procedure with little medical benefit. The medical benefits of circumcision are just a thinly veiled excuse - the main reason for circumcision is tradition, and that is incredibly fucked up.
If you want your child to have a hygienic penis, tell them to fucking wash - don't cut off parts of their bodies.
[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;47809330]If someone chooses to be circumcised, would you still call them "mutilated"?[/QUOTE]
If they don't have a medical reason for it, yes
if you want your own arm cut off for no medical reason that's some self-mutilating behaviour right there.
You're comparing the removal of a useless piece of skin to this:
[QUOTE] They include removal of the clitoral hood and clitoral glans (the visible part of the clitoris), removal of the inner labia and, in the most severe form (known as infibulation), removal of the inner and outer labia and closure of the vulva. In this last procedure, a small hole is left for the passage of urine and menstrual fluid, and the vagina is opened for intercourse and opened further for childbirth. Health effects depend on the procedure, but can include recurrent infections, chronic pain, cysts, an inability to get pregnant, complications during childbirth and fatal bleeding.[8] There are no known health benefits.[9] [/QUOTE]
How is it mutilation if many people say that it looks better?

Fuck it, let's just chop off all the other "useless" pieces of skin that babies have while we're at it. Why stop at the foreskin? May as well get rid of the unconnected earlobes while we're at it, as those can become dry and infected.

People only say it looks better because they are accustomed to it within the society. If you go to a country where circumcision is not traditional, such as the UK, you'll find that the vast majority of people prefer an uncircumcised penis, and rarely see a circumcised penis.
Circumcising a baby because "it looks better" is such an immature and dangerous way of thinking and has contributed to a large number of infant deaths.

How is that a 'slippery slope' argument? You're advocating removing "useless" pieces of skin for cosmetic reasons.

Meanwhile in sub-saharan africa...
My penis likes it's turtle neck that way it is! Hell aint no body coming near my penis ill fucking kill the bastards.
Man the foreskin has all the nerve endings so you can actually feel something.
If you wondered why the fuck many Americans always masturbate with lube, it's because they lack a foreskin
